Ok, probably an odd question. The general contractor building our house is constantly bringing us fresh eggs from his chickens. That is what got me started on this chicken bandwagon to begin with. He has a mixed flock, with roosters so I'm pretty confident the eggs are fertile although I've never checked. Once in a while he brings us some nice pretty green eggs. I've resisted the urge to put any of his eggs in the bator so far...but I'm thinking the next time he brings me one or more of those pretty green eggs I'm going to go for it.
So my question is... if I incubate and hatch out one of those green eggs...will I end up with a hen that will also lay green eggs? Or is it just a gamble really? He said he doesn't have any roosters of that type, so the eggs are not pure breed.
